Reborn during the early days of China’s reform and opening, the narrator finds himself in the 1980s countryside. In this setting, the past is still a cold reference, yet it is also a fresh start....
The chief physician had been in the emergency room for more than ten minutes.
Liu Shengan was so restless that he was still at a loss even though Wan Feng tried to comfort him again and again.
During this period, Liu Shengan went to pay the money again, and the 7,000 yuan that Wan Feng paid him was almost enough.
Finally, the door of the emergency room opened and the chief physician walked out.
Liu Shengan moved in front of the chief physician as if he had teleported, and asked in a trembling voice, "Doctor..."
The chief physician waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I'll be out after the nurse finishes the follow-up treatment."
Upon hearing this, Liu Shengan collapsed to the ground like a deflated ball!
Wan Feng was speechless.
Can you be a little more promising?
However, it was indeed good news that the patient was fine, and Wan Feng felt relieved.
"Thank you, doctor!"
Liu Shengan became paralyzed with happiness, and Wan Feng had no choice but to express his gratitude to the doctor.
The chief physician smiled at Wan Feng, waved his hand, and left.
"Help your brother up. What's the big deal about a grown man sitting on the ground?"
Liu Shengguang pulled Liu Shengan up and put him on the bench. Less than two minutes after he sat down, the door of the emergency room opened again.
Two nurses came out of the emergency room pushing a bed.
"Who is Jiang Hongmei's family member?" a nurse asked.
"It's me!" Liu Shengan walked over in one step.
"Your lover is out. He is still sleeping. Please don't speak loudly."
Liu Shengan's wife's face was as white as snow, and she was sleeping with her eyes closed, wearing an oxygen mask.
The nurse pushed the bed to bed number 333 and, with the help of Liu Shengan and his brother, moved the patient onto the bed.
"The patient will wake up in about ten minutes. Let her stay calm and rest."
The two nurses were very friendly and told Liu Shengan about precautions and dietary requirements, and reminded him to call them in time if anything unexpected happened.
"Nurse! How many days will my wife need to recuperate in the hospital?"
"You can go home in two or three days."
It was only two or three days before Liu Shengan breathed a sigh of relief.
When the nurse went out, Wan Feng followed her.
"Two girls, I have something to ask. Have you been taking care of our patient these past few days?"
The two nurses didn't know why Wan Feng asked this: "We'll take care of him this week."
That's good.
Wan Feng called the two nurses to the bathroom and stuffed a fifty-yuan bill into each of their pockets.
"Could you two please take care of the patient in bed 3, room 333?"
The two nurses had obviously never experienced such a thing and were a little flustered.
"This is not good. If you are found out, you will be punished."
"If you don't tell me, no one will know. I'm not doing anything through the backdoor. I just want you to take better care of the patient in bed 3."
The two nurses walked away, feeling both happy and frightened, like children setting off firecrackers.
I wonder if this is the beginning of people putting money into doctors’ pockets when seeing a doctor more than a decade later?
Wan Feng returned to the ward.
"Wan Feng! Thank you for coming today, thank you so much!"
"Liu Shengan! Don't say these hypocritical words. I wouldn't know what's happening if I hadn't encountered it. If I had encountered it, I couldn't help but help. No one would stand by and watch someone die."
"That's what I said, but I can't do it without money. Thank you anyway."
What Liu Shengan said is right. It is indeed impossible to succeed without money.
You see, Wan Feng gave the chief physician a hundred yuan, and not only did he let him personally deal with the patient's condition, but he also came to the ward to visit the patient in person within ten minutes after the patient was discharged.
The chief physician came to bed number 3 specifically to ask about the patient's performance after returning.
What's the sign of a person still sleeping?
"She sleeps very soundly, so there's no need to worry. She'll wake up soon. When she wakes up, if she's hungry, it's best to give her some soy products, like soy milk, tofu pudding, eggs, or other high-protein foods. Don't overfeed at the beginning; it's best to stop when you're full."
"Doctor! Please recommend some supplements to me." Wan Feng suggested.
"You can take tonics, but don't take too much. If you take too much, it will prolong the patient's recovery period, which is not a good thing. You can eat some donkey hide gelatin, jujube, longan, etc. in moderation."
It turns out that taking a lot of supplements is not necessarily a good thing. This is something I learned.
Not long after the chief physician left, Liu Shengan's wife finally opened her eyes and smiled when she saw Liu Shengan.
Seeing his wife wake up, Liu Shengan held the woman's hand and cried with joy.
Wan Feng couldn't stand this scene, so he left the ward on the pretext of going to the bathroom.
One of the two young nurses happened to pass by Ward 3. When she saw Wan Feng, she asked him if the patient had woken up.
Wan Feng told them that they just woke up.
The young nurse turned around and went into the ward to ask about the patient's health.
Bored, Wan Feng started wandering around the corridor.
The hospital is full of patients, adults and children, all kinds of people.
There are all kinds of things here, including missing noses, eyes, arms and legs.
I just wonder if there are any heartless patients?
If Luan Feng goes to the hospital one day, it will probably be because of this disease.
Thinking of this, Wan Feng laughed silently.
The two places people are probably least willing to deal with in their lives are the police station and the hospital.
If a person never deals with these two units in his life, he would probably become a saint.
Wan Feng was strolling around while thinking about random things, and before he knew it, he had walked down to the second floor.
This area is probably related to children, as there are children screaming everywhere.
Oh, by the way, Han Guang and his wife have been living in the hospital for several days. I wonder if the baby is born yet?
Go and have a look.
Wan Feng immediately looked for the mother and baby area in the hospital building, and after some inquiries, he finally arrived at the area.
The maternity and baby care center and the hospital are not together, but there is a specially opened maternity and baby care center opposite the hospital.
Wan Feng was so confused searching around the Maternal and Child Hospital that he finally found Han Guang and his wife in a ward on the third floor.
Liang Hongying's bed was tilted to 45 degrees. She leaned on the bed with a white towel covering her forehead, looking like she had worked hard and accomplished something.
Han Guangjia was standing by a small bed next to the hospital bed like a silly roe deer, grinning foolishly.
It looks like she's given birth.
Liang Hongying saw Wan Feng first and reached out to pull Han Guangjia: "Wan Feng is here."
Wan Feng walked into the ward with a smile on his face, and at first glance he saw a tightly wrapped little thing in the small bed.
The little thing's two black eyes were rolling around, and it actually smiled when it saw Wan Feng.
"It's born! When was it born?"
"Last night around seven o'clock."
"Huh? The baby, who was born around seven o'clock last night, has his eyes open now?"
Doesn’t it take normal children two days to open their eyes?
"He opened his eyes more than two hours after he was born." It was the first time that Wan Feng saw Han Guangjia smile so brightly.
"Then why isn't he sleeping? What's with those two eyes bulging out?"
A baby should sleep seventeen or eighteen hours a day after birth. What's going on with this little guy's eyes wide open?
Is this the result of a child not wanting to sleep? What a shame!
